Out of the people that ever were, almost all of them are dead.
There are way more dead people, and you're all gonna die
and then you're gonna be dead for way longer than you're alive.
Like that's mostly what you're ever gonna be.
You're just dead people that didn't die yet.
--Louis C.K.

The green careening planet
spins blindly in the dark
so close to annihilation.

OK, I just listened to my first one, "Stilton Cheese"... it definitely had some amusing moments describing being in a stodgy British men's club, all wood panelling and port, and being served Stilton from a gargantuan wheel.

I would start with Ryder Ryder Nails the Cleveland Street Kid, and Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven of Bliss, and then get into some of the radio shows. Remember, when you get into the radio shows, he did a daily radio show for 22 years on WOR, so not every moment is going to be a barn-burner, floor rolling laugh fest, which is true of anyone who does such shows on a daily basis.

But, what he does is take mundane things and weave them into an interesting tale -- common events become modern day folklore. I think if you let it grow on you, you'll enjoy much of what he does.
